Hi every one.
One month ago I bought my current scooter, 2008 Eurospeed es 250b, with 500 miles on it and yesterday after 900 miles of use I noticed the rear being badly loose. I just started taking it apart my self (dealer warranty expired 3 days ago) but I was wondering if anybody has encountered this problem and had any helpful tips.
Thanx in advance
Yomo

Well, it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought. The axle nut was completely loose and all I needed to do was remove the muffler, apply loc-titte and re-tighten the nut. I think next weekend I will try to remove it again to lubricate properly.

I have the same problem by times, use some loctite (blue) it. I have the mc-54-250b with the 257cc engine.
